Liam Gallagher taken aback by the demand for tickets for his first solo UK and Irish tour

In the new issue of Music Week, Liam Gallagher has said he was taken aback by the demand for tickets for his first solo UK and Irish arena tour.

Gallagher hits the road in December for a UK and Irish arena tour with dates in London, Leeds, Glasgow, Newcastle, Nottingham, Birmingham, Cardiff, Plymouth and Brighton Centre.

Tickets sold out fast and Gallagher has admitted public demand had far exceeded his own expectations.

He said “At the time I was like, ‘I’m not doing arenas, let’s turn it down a bit and do Brixton Academy or something like that’, so I’m absolutely blown away by it man,” he said. “We could have been greedy and done loads of nights but it’s not about the money, it’s about doing it and leaving people wanting more.

“I know for a fact that I can still shake a room, I fucking know I can, so they’re gonna get fucking shook man.”
